still punk after all these years
I missed this story from a couple weeks ago. The Sex Pistols were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame earlier this month along with Black Sabbath, Blondie and Herb Alpert among others. The Pistols publicly snubbed the event and bailed on the ceremony calling the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame a "piss stain" and "urine in wine". They might be old but at least they are sticking to their anarchist guns.
Read their handwritten note to the Hall of Fame here.
The Pistols aren't doing anything interesting right now, and haven't since they released their only album, which still rocks. Today Johnny Rotten a.k.a. John Lydon still goes around making contorted facial expressions while guitarist Steve Jones has a mediocre afternoon radio show on LA's Indie 103 FM.
